As 2020 quickly approached, we wanted to share our flag flying holidays 2020 calendar with all the important days to make sure you fly your American flag.
The calendar also includes days to fly your flag at half-staff. The two most confusing flag holidays are Veteran’s Day and Memorial Day. Should the flag fly full staff or half staff? On Veteran’s Day the flag flies proudly at full-staff since it is celebrating the service of all U.S. military veterans. Memorial Day honors those who have died while serving in the military. The other confusion of Memorial Day why the flag flies at half staff until noon, then it is proudly raised until sundown. The flags flies at half staff until noon to honor veterans that have died during service. The flag then flies at full staff honoring living veterans for the remainder of the day.
Use this calendar to reference the important flag flying holidays. It is great to print Custom Flag Company Flag Calendar 2020 and hang up, or just save it to your desktop.
